1
00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:04,920
Speaker 1: On Scornelds, Australia.

2
00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 2: This is the winder Paney Show.

3
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 1: Good evening and welcome to the Rita Patahe Show.

4
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 3: I'm Danikiti Giorgio coming up tonight. Australia's Ambassador to the US,

5
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 3: Kevin Rather, humiliated and forced to apologize to Donald Trump

6
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,680
Speaker 3: during a tense dressing down at the White House.

7
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 1: Kosher Gada will.

8
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 3: Join me to discuss Anthony Arbernisi's first meeting with the

9
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 3: US President.

10
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 1: Was it a success?

11
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 3: UK prison officers order to offer transgender prisoners makeup and

12
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 3: prosthetics in men's prisons. Stephanie Bastian has more on this

13
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 3: latest gender madness.

14
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:41,360
Speaker 1: The tolerant left strikes again.

15
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 3: Comedian Alex Stein is assaulted at a No King's protest

16
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 3: to the US. He'll tell us what happened shortly and

17
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 3: of course.

18
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,280
Speaker 1: Left he's losing it and the wild Karens are back.

19
00:00:53,240 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 4: What does it?

20
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 3: But first to the humiliation of Australia's Ambassador to the US,

21
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 3: Kevin Rudd, who was finally made to face President Donald

22
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 3: Trump during the Prime Minister's visit to the US. During

23
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 3: a tense White House clash. The President demanded Rod apologized

24
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 3: for disparaging remarks he made about him after his first term,

25
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 3: labeling him the most destructive president in history and as

26
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 3: a traitor.

27
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: To the West in a series of social media posts.

28
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 3: Now have a look at right squirm while Anthony Albanezi

29
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 3: laughs at him?

30
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 5: Has been concerned in Australias taken nine months to get

31
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 5: this meeting?

32
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 6: Have you had any concerns with this administration, with the

33
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 6: stance on Palestine, climate change or even things the ambassador

34
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 6: said about you in the past, the Australian ambassador, I

35
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 6: don't know anything about him. If he said bad then

36
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 6: maybe he'll like to apologize. I really don't know. Did

37
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 6: an ambassador to say something about it?

38
00:01:54,440 --> 00:02:04,559
Speaker 4: Don't tell me. Whereas yes, you said bad dispositions to president.

39
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 6: I don't like you either and probably never will.

40
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: Oh it was delicious, wasn't it.

41
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 3: Johnny winn Appamore on this his former Victorian Liberal Party

42
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 3: president Michael Kroger, and Menzi's research center seeior fellow Nick Cator.

43
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 3: Hi to both of you, Thanks so much for your

44
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 3: time this evening. Michael over to you first, what do

45
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 3: you make of this scolding?

46
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 7: Well, it just shows you Niga. Even though the meeting

47
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 7: went well in terms of, you know, the trade deals

48
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 7: Australia got out of it, which is great for our country.

49
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 7: It's another reason why Rudd should not be the ambassador.

50
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 7: Susan Lee, the Liberal Party of the leaders, called on

51
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,919
Speaker 7: him to go. She's absolutely right. I mean, who wants

52
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 7: that country embarrassed by the rogue comments of our ambassador.

53
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 7: Before he became the ambassador, he made some stupid comments.

54
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 7: He also referred to Trump as a village idiot. I mean,

55
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 7: you know seriously then that he was made ambassador, So

56
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,079
Speaker 7: it was embarrassing for Australia, embarrassing for our country and

57
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 7: national interest, embarrassing around the world. These pictures have gone

58
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 7: all around the world. So a good day for Australia

59
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 7: in one sense, but a very bad day in another sense.

60
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 7: Another reason why Kevin Rudd shouldn't be reappointed when he

61
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 7: comes up very important reappointment.

62
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 1: Well, you're right.

63
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, he's been the elephant in the

64
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 3: room this whole time. Nick is still the elephant in

65
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 3: the room. But the elephant in the room had to

66
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,839
Speaker 3: be addressed today. Do you think his role as ambassador

67
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 3: can seriously continue?

68
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 2: Well, I think was obviously right when he said that

69
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 2: Donald Trump was a destructive prime a destructive president. I mean,

70
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 2: he certainly should have destroyed Kevin Rudd's career after that one.

71
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 2: Oh look, when your ambassador is the topic of conversation

72
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 2: at a high level meeting, it is not a good

73
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 2: day for Australia. When your ambassador is a joke, when

74
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 2: everybody in the room is laughing at him, when he's

75
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 2: the laughing stock in the entire room, then it's a

76
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 2: terrible day. If Kevin Rudd had any ability to be embarrassed,

77
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 2: he would be resigning right now. I suspect he doesn't.

78
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 2: He seems to be somebody who had his embarrassment gene

79
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 2: removed at b But he you know, his position was

80
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 2: always untenable. It is completely untenable now. And if Prime

81
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 2: Minister had any sense of what the right thing to

82
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 2: do would be, he'd replaced him quietly in about six

83
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 2: weeks time.

84
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:16,159
Speaker 1: Well you think so, yeah, you're right.

85
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 3: Rud's now just a walking punchline and the division, as

86
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 3: we all said, has gone viral. But let's talk more

87
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 3: broadly about this meeting. It was a long time coming.

88
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 3: Finally Anthony Alberneasy sat down with the President the President

89
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 3: actually praised the Orcas pack to have a listen.

90
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,479
Speaker 6: It was made a while ago and nobody did anything

91
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 6: about it, and it's going too slowly. We do actually

92
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 6: have a lot of submarines. We have the best submarines

93
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 6: in the world anywhere in the world, and we're building

94
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 6: a few more currently under construction, and now we're starting.

95
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,479
Speaker 6: We have it all set with Anthony. We've worked on

96
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 6: this long and high, and we're starting in that process

97
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 6: right now, and I think it's really moving along very rapidly,

98
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 6: very well.

99
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 3: Michael, So, by all accounts, the Orchest agreement is safe.

100
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 3: What do you make of this meeting? Do you think

101
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 3: that Anthony Arberenezi would be breathing a sigh of relief?

102
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 7: There is absolutely no doubt at all, DANEAKA. He is

103
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 7: breathing a sigh of relief. He's probably had half a

104
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 7: dozen bers back to his hotel room thinking thank God

105
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 7: for that. It could have gone in any direction, but

106
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 7: clearly Trump was in the mood and in discussions with

107
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 7: his advisors they've worked out, hey, listen, how do we

108
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 7: handle this guy this meeting? Well, Australia are one of

109
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 7: our closest, more reliable, more long standing allies going back

110
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 7: over one hundred years. I mean MacArthur had his base

111
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 7: here in Australia during the war. I mean, George were

112
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 7: soon you had a close relationship with Australia and Australian

113
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 7: Prime Minister Bob Hawk, his son had a close relationship

114
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 7: with he was president with John Howard, et cetera et ce.

115
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 4: Men, we are as close as close.

116
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 7: Despite the rat bag left in Australia that don't want

117
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,599
Speaker 7: us to be aloes with America. This was an acknowledgment

118
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 7: of Australia being a true ally of the United States

119
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 7: for more than one hundred years. And you know that's

120
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 7: what happened today. And it's good for Australia that he

121
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 7: treated our country with the respect it deserves and quite

122
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 7: franctly Albaneze he said the same things about America. So

123
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 7: you know, a good day for Australia apart from the

124
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 7: elephant in the room.

125
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, apart from the elephant in the room, Nick. Realistically,

126
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 3: Australia got some assurances from the US.

127
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,719
Speaker 2: The reassurance over UCAS is a big relief that you

128
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 2: now have a president who endorses it, because I don't

129
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 2: think when Joe Biden signed it. He knew what he

130
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 2: was signing, quite honestly. If you remember that press conference,

131
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 2: he couldn't even remember Prime Minister Morrison's name. He called

132
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 2: him that fellow down under something. So clearly, now we

133
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 2: have a president who's engaged in foreign policy. It was Trump,

134
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 2: of course who changed the American foreign policy towards China

135
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 2: in his first term, realizing that they are an enormous

136
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 2: threat and we shouldn't we shouldn't be naive in our

137
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 2: dealings with China. So that the fact that he has

138
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 2: now grasped this, he is right behind the idea of

139
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 2: sending a submarines. That's terrific. The same thing goes for

140
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 2: the rare Earth deal too. Again, that's a very important

141
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 2: strategic move to push China out of the picture, to

142
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 2: stop them controlling absolutely everything in the world. And I

143
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 2: think what we should do is abandon this things made

144
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 2: in Australia policy that Albanesi has and recognize that it's

145
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 2: important that things are made in the West with our

146
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 2: Western allies, and if we can contribute to that, be

147
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 2: part of that logistics change, we'll be doing a lot

148
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 2: for our own security.

149
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 3: Look absolutely, and look, let's talk more broadly about China,

150
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 3: because a Chinese fighter plane has released flares very close

151
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 3: to a Royal Australian Air Force plane carrying out surveillance

152
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 3: in international airspace over the South China Sea. Defense Minister

153
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 3: Richard Miles had this characteristically weak response.

154
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 8: On two occasions it released flares very close to the

155
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 8: P eight and it's really that the proximity at which

156
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 8: the flares were released which has given us cause to

157
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 8: dean this unsafe and unprofessional. We have made representations to

158
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 8: the Chinese embassy here in Canberra, and inteed our embassy

159
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 8: has also made representations in Beijing.

160
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, Michael, another nothing to see, all above board response

161
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 3: from labor and yet you know, Anthony Arbernesi has just

162
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 3: been and gone to China. All that panda diplomacy has

163
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 3: fallen on deaf ears.

164
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, look, it be interesting to hear what the Chinese

165
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 7: government's responses to the learning of these flares in our inquiries.

166
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 7: Australian government attitude to China is very obsequious. We are

167
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 7: a small nation with big trade. We are inferior military,

168
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 7: militarily and every other way. And you know, and that's

169
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 7: the way albneasy treats the relationship with China. We are subservient.

170
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 7: We can't challenge them, we can't take them on. We're

171
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 7: fearful of, you know, a trade embarger, which is what

172
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 7: happened a few years ago when the then government tried

173
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 7: to stand up to China. So he's just decided weakness

174
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 7: is the best cause of action. A new see it

175
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 7: and everything the government does with China, which is very dangerous.

176
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,679
Speaker 7: Of course, it embolves China and the South Pacific, and

177
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 7: that's why our treaty with the New Guinea is an

178
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 7: important one. But you know, quite frankly, you have to

179
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 7: stand up to China from time to time. You just

180
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 7: can't bury your head, which is what this training government

181
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 7: does and let China walk all over us because I

182
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 7: think on too many occasions that seems to happen, and

183
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 7: we never get a we never get a sufficient results

184
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 7: from China as to why they're doing what they're doing

185
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 7: off the Australian.

186
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: Coast, No exactly, And I mean, what are they waiting for?

187
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 9: This?

188
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 1: You know, soft diplomacy?

189
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 3: And then a flare hits one of our military jets

190
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 3: and blows the thing up.

191
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: I mean, what are they waiting for?

192
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,199
Speaker 3: Nick, And also I wonder about the timing of this,

193
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 3: because China would have known obviously that Anthony Abernezi was

194
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 3: going to the US for this meeting.

195
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 2: Do you think there's anything in that If the Chinese

196
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 2: did do it to time with that meeting, then they've

197
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 2: done us a favor because it was a clear reminder

198
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 2: for Antony Alberanezi, who seems to have trouble realzing this

199
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 2: whose side we are on in this dispute. So he's

200
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:07,200
Speaker 2: there signing a strategic deal, he's there signing a trade

201
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 2: deal both to deal with the China threat. He's got

202
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 2: this reminder of the China threat the day before. Surely

203
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 2: he's got to stop this pretense that Australia is somehow

204
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 2: in the middle, that we're friends with everybody, that China

205
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 2: is a benign power that has our best interests at heart.

206
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 2: It's ludicrous. And you know, while we're at it, was

207
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,719
Speaker 2: reminded justin to Allan of that after she's just been

208
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 2: to China to try and get money out of them

209
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 2: for this, that and the other, she shouldn't be anywhere

210
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 2: near China right now. She should be barred from going

211
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 2: to China.

212
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:36,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.

213
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 3: Well, clearly, you know, but they're all they're all closing

214
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 3: up to China at the moment.

215
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: Now.

216
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,839
Speaker 3: Look at former Nationals leader Michael McCormack has attempted to

217
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 3: hose down suggestions that MPs could quit the party or

218
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 3: defect to one nation. Of course, amid the reports that

219
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 3: Barnaby Joyce is in high level talks with Pauline Hansen

220
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 3: following his.

221
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 1: Decision to quit the Nationals.

222
00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 3: Michael, look that thent's that they're downplaying this, even David

223
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,599
Speaker 3: Little Proud saying, you know, everything's all above board, but

224
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 3: I mean, realistically, how do you see.

225
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:06,679
Speaker 1: This playing out.

226
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 3: There's so many issues at play and it all stems

227
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 3: around energy policy.

228
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,079
Speaker 7: Well it partly does, partly personality issues and the way

229
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 7: Joyce was treated before the election, et cetera, et cetera.

230
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 7: So there's a lot of personal issues that Barnaby Joyce

231
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 7: has with the National Party. I would think in the

232
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 7: next month or so, the energy policy will be the

233
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 7: issue will be resolved. And what I'd really like to

234
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 7: see is Barnaby make a decision on his future sooner

235
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 7: rather than later. And if he's staying with the National Party,

236
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 7: he should say so. If he's leaving the National Party equally,

237
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 7: he should say so. And you can't let this caravan

238
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 7: keep circling day after day, week after week, month after

239
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,439
Speaker 7: month month. It's destructive for the National Party. It's not

240
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 7: really helping Barnaby because people think he's a wrecker and

241
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 7: I obviously doesn't help the coalition. So the sooner he

242
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,440
Speaker 7: makes the decision, I think the better, so we can

243
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 7: get on with policy development. And you can see that's

244
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 7: what Susan Lee's doing on a daily basis, you know,

245
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 7: as you get a great speech to the CIS yesterday

246
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,719
Speaker 7: about the importance of lowering personal income taxes. So she's

247
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 7: starting to build a narrative for the next election and

248
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 7: these distractions are not helping. And as James Patterson said,

249
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 7: it's time to bring this sort of national apology to her,

250
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 7: to know frakka to an end so people can concentrate

251
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:22,200
Speaker 7: on the next election.

252
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,559
Speaker 3: I think that they're good, well, look absolutely, and I

253
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 3: mean the problem is that the Coalition are still talking

254
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 3: about themselves as opposed to actually putting some policy ideas

255
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 3: on the table, and that's half the battle right now.

256
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 3: But I mean, is Michael right, Nick, But the suit

257
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:38,839
Speaker 3: of Barnaby comes out and says, Yep, this is what

258
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 3: I'm doing.

259
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 1: Everyone can move on.

260
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course he is. When this story broke at

261
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 2: the weekend or was it on Friday, Barnaby should have

262
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 2: either just denied it completely. He said he had no

263
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 2: intention of leaving the Nationals and joining One Nation while

264
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,679
Speaker 2: he's in Parliament, or he should just get on and

265
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 2: do it, leave the party's party room and go and

266
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 2: join One Nation if that's what he's in to do.

267
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 2: I don't think that'd be a sensible thing right now,

268
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 2: but I do think it's a reminder of the importance

269
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 2: of the Curalition getting its act together, getting a firm

270
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 2: position on immigration, a firm position on energy policy that

271
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 2: the party can live with, both sides of the party

272
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 2: can live with, even if neither side is happy, because

273
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:19,559
Speaker 2: if they don't fail to do that, and what we

274
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 2: see with Barnaby is just a foretaste of what's to come,

275
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,839
Speaker 2: you will see a complete realignment of the center right,

276
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 2: which is not a good option. It's a much better

277
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,319
Speaker 2: option that the Couralition goes in in the United position

278
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:31,319
Speaker 2: to fight the next election.

279
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 3: It couldn't agree more give voters a clear and actual,

280
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 3: stark choice now. Look, the Queensland government has signed a

281
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 3: pseudo voice packed with seventeen Indigenous run councils, granting them

282
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,839
Speaker 3: direct access to the state cabinet to advise them on

283
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 3: issues like housing and water access. Meanwhile, the state's sixty

284
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 3: other councils will be forced to continue dealing with layers

285
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 3: of bureaucracy to meet with government figures.

286
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,439
Speaker 1: Michael, I can't help but wonder if this is some

287
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 1: sort of a voice by stealth.

288
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 7: I don't agree with it. You know, we're one nation

289
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 7: where you can't have a treaty. A nation can't have

290
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 7: a treaty with itself. That implies there are two nations

291
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 7: that can't get on and need special privileges to deal

292
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,199
Speaker 7: with each other. It's very destructive, it's divisive, it's based

293
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 7: on race, and it's not helpful to the nation. So

294
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 7: to acknowledge, I mean, are there are hundreds and hundreds

295
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 7: of Aboriginal advisory bodies already? The Council of Peaks, I mean,

296
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 7: there's hundreds of them.

297
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 4: I don't think.

298
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 7: I don't think indigenous community's capacity to talk to state

299
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 7: and federal governments is any way being inhibited in recent years.

300
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 7: I can't think of any major examples where these voices

301
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 7: haven't been heard directly with governed, as they should be,

302
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 7: as every group making representations to governments and government bodies

303
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 7: should be heard, and they have been heard. But I

304
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 7: think the grand special privileges to one group over another

305
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 7: is wrong, and I regret that this is being done.

306
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 7: We've got this problem now in Victoria with the Voice

307
00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 7: by Sealth coming to Victorian Parlan, which will which will

308
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 7: divide Victorians by race forever if it gets passed by

309
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 7: the Upper House. So no, I don't agree with these

310
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 7: types of proposals, and I wish the government would rethink

311
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 7: it up there.

312
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I couldn't agree more. We're almost our time, Nick, But.

313
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 2: Your thoughts, well, rather than find these workarounds to bypass bureaucracy,

314
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 2: why not slim down the bureaucracy in the first place

315
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 2: and then make it fair for everybody. It's ludicrous that

316
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 2: you should do this for one particular group rather than another,

317
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,120
Speaker 2: and I'm surprised the Queensland government is going anywhere near there.

318
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 3: Well, sixty percent us percent of us said no to

319
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 3: being divided by the color of our skin, So we

320
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 3: can't keep having this Nick Kate and Michael Kroger. Good

321
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 3: to see you both. Thanks so much for doing to

322
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 3: me on the show.

323
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 1: Appreciate it.

324
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 3: Joining me now is Women's Forum Australia's head of advocacy,

325
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 3: Stephanie Bastian. Step nice to catch up as always, Thanks

326
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 3: for joining me. Let's start with this story out of Victoria.

327
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 3: The government is under fire for ignoring repeated requests to

328
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 3: meet with parents of adolescence with gender distress. Now, this

329
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 3: is a group of parents whose children are struggling with

330
00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 3: gender identity. It comes amid revelations Victory or in state

331
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 3: schools are allowing students to socially transition their gender without

332
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 3: parental knowledge or consent. Steph the Education Department's Deputy secretary

333
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 3: told the group that any further correspondence would be quote

334
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 3: filed and not responded to. And the premieer is running

335
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 3: away from this. Her government's refusing to record how many

336
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 3: kids this is happening to.

337
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 1: What has the premier got to hide?

338
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 4: Well, good evening, Danika, great to join you.

339
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 5: I mean the Premier is issuing a lot of platitudes

340
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 5: at the moment about supporting kids with gender diverse feelings

341
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 5: and emotions and when it comes to the parents that

342
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 5: are trying to deal with these children and to support them,

343
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 5: she's now running away.

344
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 4: The model in Victoria is wrong.

345
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 5: First of all, you have kids being educated about gender

346
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 5: ideology in schools. If you tell a child they can

347
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 5: change their sex or gender, which is used intimidtently, they

348
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 5: will believe you.

349
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 4: Then they're being socially transitioned at school.

350
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 5: So by the time the parents find out about them,

351
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 5: they're often at medical tal transition, and they've got these

352
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 5: conversion therapy laws to grapple with. How do they support

353
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 5: their children and get holistic care if the child is

354
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 5: already down the pathway of gender affirmation. It's an absolute disgrace.

355
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,120
Speaker 5: But I do think the government is intentionally running away

356
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 5: from this. Their whole department seems to have been captured

357
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 5: by ideologues that are bent on pushing this agenda down

358
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 5: the throats of children, and it's an absolute disgrace. But

359
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 5: most concerningly is that it is causing very real harm

360
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 5: to these vulnerable children. It's not just a change of

361
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 5: name and a change of outfit. You're modifying their bodies

362
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 5: with the full extent of where this leads to.

363
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely and once again, parents are left in the dark.

364
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:39,400
Speaker 1: They've got no idea.

365
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 3: What's going on with their own children because of this

366
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 3: Wope ideology that's been thrust in classrooms and in general.

367
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:45,679
Speaker 1: It's just terrible.

368
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,720
Speaker 3: Now let's move on, because a second woman has come

369
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 3: forward detailing her quote five months of hell locked in

370
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,920
Speaker 3: a cell with a transgender prisoner in South Australia. She's

371
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,120
Speaker 3: told The Australian she was forced to share a cell

372
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 3: with christ Richard, a violent criminal who was alleged last

373
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 3: week to have brutally sexually assaulted a young woman. The

374
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 3: former inmates said she was forced to sleep next to

375
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 3: the near naked sixty nine year old once known as

376
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 3: Leslie Graham Richards, but who has now had gender affirming

377
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 3: surgery and claims to be a lesbian steph. Of course,

378
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 3: I mean, this just comes days after the Premier Peter

379
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 3: Malinowskis dismissed the safety of female inmates as a quote

380
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 3: niche issue. I mean, the topic keeps coming up. Why

381
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 3: are they so scared about the rights of women to

382
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 3: even have this discussion.

383
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 5: Well, Premier Malanowskis has made it very clear that women

384
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:40,600
Speaker 5: in custody are undeserving of his time and attention. It

385
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 5: doesn't matter where it happens. Violence against women, abusive women

386
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 5: is always wrong. Now, this is a woman who was

387
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 5: systemically failed by corrections. She was forced to stay in

388
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,160
Speaker 5: a cell with this man who was also running around

389
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 5: threatening women.

390
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,679
Speaker 4: I believe he chased her to assault her.

391
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 5: There's strong allegations coming about the behavior of this man

392
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 5: and she put up with it for five months because

393
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 5: she was threatened to have moved to a prison further

394
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:06,880
Speaker 5: away from her children.

395
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:09,199
Speaker 4: This is absolutely inhumane.

396
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 5: I think the Ombudsman at the time in twenty nineteen,

397
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,680
Speaker 5: Wayne Line should also be called out because he advocated

398
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 5: for prison authorities to act more quickly on affirming Leslie

399
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 5: Christ's gender and said that prison authorities hadn't moved quickly enough.

400
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 5: And I just question these women. Where are the advocates

401
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 5: in the prison system for these women? And we do

402
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 5: know that there are other allegations against this prisoner as well,

403
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 5: and he is still in a female prison. So absolute

404
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 5: trial by the Premier and the Corrections Minister in South

405
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,200
Speaker 5: Australia who have failed to do nothing.

406
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 4: In fact, they've dismissed it as a nache issue.

407
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 3: Look it's an absolute disgrace and all credit up to

408
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 3: the Northern Territory Leofanocchiaro, the only leader with a spine

409
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 3: to actually come out and have a position on this.

410
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:56,919
Speaker 1: Now. Look, this is extraordinary.

411
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 3: Over in the UK, prison officers have been ordered to

412
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:05,160
Speaker 3: offer transgender prisoners makeup and prosthetics in men's prisons. According

413
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 3: to newly released government guidance, staff for urged to supply

414
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 3: appropriate clothing and toilet trees, including makeup for their acquired gender,

415
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,960
Speaker 3: and help transgender inmates to buy or supply them with

416
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,120
Speaker 3: prosthetics or chest binders.

417
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,359
Speaker 1: I mean, Steph that this is just absurd.

418
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 5: Look, I think if you're a male prisoner in a

419
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,399
Speaker 5: male prison, you're going to want to try and move

420
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 5: to a female prison because of the privileges. I mean,

421
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,639
Speaker 5: there was a saying going around the UK prison onset

422
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,160
Speaker 5: gender dysphoria just for this particular purpose.

423
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 4: It's an absolute disgrace.

424
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 5: Obviously the UK have made leaps and bounds in terms

425
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,640
Speaker 5: of recognizing women under.

426
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,359
Speaker 4: Law, but they still have a long way to go.

427
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:48,159
Speaker 5: They'll be hopefully a series of court cases challenging the

428
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 5: human rights of women in the prison system to get

429
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,159
Speaker 5: these men out, but you can just see the quagmire

430
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 5: of mess that's come from gender ideology in our law.

431
00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 4: And just how far behind Australia is.

432
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 5: I mean, if women are recognized in Laura in the

433
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 5: UK and they're still grappling with these issues, we've got

434
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 5: a long way to go.

435
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: We are so far behind the rest of the world.

436
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 3: Absolutely, Stephanie Bastian, nice to see you, Thanks very much

437
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 3: for your time.

438
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: This evening pasure still to come.

439
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 3: Lefties losing it and the fallout continues from Donald Trump's

440
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,679
Speaker 3: dressing down of Kevin Rudd at the White House.

441
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 1: Kosha Gada is upneas.

442
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,479
Speaker 3: And now it is time for lefties losing it, starting

443
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 3: with the No King's rally to oppose Donald Trump and

444
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:44,440
Speaker 3: the real low vibrational attendees. Here are Democrat Senators Corey

445
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 3: Booker and Adam Schiff giving it a go, trying to

446
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:49,200
Speaker 3: hamp up the crowds.

447
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 1: This is what democracy looks. This is what democracy looks like.

448
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 1: This says what democracy looks like. This say is what

449
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 1: democracy looks.

450
00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:03,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, I actually saw more enthusiasm from Joe Biden when

451
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,479
Speaker 3: he was walking around in circles than the enthusiasm from

452
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 3: that crowd.

453
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 1: So what exactly is their objection to Donald Trump? I'll

454
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 1: let them explain. Trump's Ah, why is that? I don't know.

455
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: We don't like him.

456
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:18,679
Speaker 8: That's the word around here.

457
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,439
Speaker 10: Any any particular reason why you don't like him.

458
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 9: No clue at all.

459
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,119
Speaker 1: I'm just going with everybody else saying no, no, he

460
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,400
Speaker 1: doesn't know. I'm not sure. I don't understand either. Maybe

461
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 1: this woman can explain.

462
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 4: Couldn't even protest like that if we had a king.

463
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,399
Speaker 1: So it's kind of a point.

464
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 11: I'm going to try to break this down for you

465
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:41,560
Speaker 11: in words that you will understand.

466
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 4: No have king, No have king?

467
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 11: Good good have president? President not good president acting like king.

468
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 11: Bad president, consolidating power, president not representing the people.

469
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:03,080
Speaker 3: We wh Wow, that really made sense, didn't it? Okay,

470
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 3: one more time, maybe this woman can help us.

471
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 1: What has president dropped on to make him a monarch?

472
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,000
Speaker 12: He started to take control and do illegal things and

473
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 12: that are not within his power. So that's pretty much

474
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 12: what makes a person of monarch. They take complete control

475
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:22,399
Speaker 12: even though they shouldn't have it.

476
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 1: He was elected. Does she know that? Who's going to

477
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:27,160
Speaker 1: tell her? Now?

478
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 3: To serial teds afflicted Robert de Niro and his latest

479
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 3: deranged outburst.

480
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:37,960
Speaker 13: He's an alien and he wants to he wants to

481
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 13: hurt this country. It's something deeply psychological in him. He

482
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 13: wants to hurt people. He wants to hurt this country.

483
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 13: Doesn't care. And what saddens me the most, upsets me

484
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 13: the most is that people follow him.

485
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,280
Speaker 3: Good one, Robert, the world really appreciates your eagle eyed

486
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:56,360
Speaker 3: political commentary.

487
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 1: And look at seems as though old Rob was.

488
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 3: On a dumboned, louded role while appearing on his preferred channel, MSNBC.

489
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,920
Speaker 1: No one was spared, not even Donald Trump's senior advisor

490
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:08,639
Speaker 1: Stephen Miller.

491
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 13: He will not he we see it. We see it.

492
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,160
Speaker 13: We see it every we see it all the time.

493
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,399
Speaker 13: He will not want to leave. He set it up

494
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 13: with his I guess he's the gabbles of the of

495
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:28,639
Speaker 13: the Cabinet, Stephen Miller. He's he's a Nazi, Yes he is,

496
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,200
Speaker 13: and he's Jewish and he should be ashamed of himself.

497
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, what is it about the tolerant left and their

498
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 3: violent rhetoric? And while we're on the topic of Hollywood

499
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 3: has beens? Kathy Griffin is at it again.

500
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 14: I'm just gonna say this and you can put my

501
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:45,680
Speaker 14: tinfoil head on you ready?

502
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 4: I love it?

503
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,480
Speaker 1: Please, I Kathy.

504
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,920
Speaker 4: Griffin, do not think that Donald won in a free

505
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:52,679
Speaker 4: and fair election.

506
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:53,679
Speaker 2: Oo.

507
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 4: It's a heart take degree degree.

508
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:01,679
Speaker 1: You're going to laugh at the way she says, are

509
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:02,200
Speaker 1: you ready?

510
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 3: As if it's the first time she said this, as

511
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 3: if it's the first time she's claimed that the twenty

512
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 3: twenty four election was rigged.

513
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:10,679
Speaker 1: I mean, we've heard about it about a.

514
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 3: Thousand times, but she's got the old tinfoil hat on.

515
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 3: Now for the dumbest press secretary in history, Karen Jean Pierre.

516
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,399
Speaker 3: Remember her, the woman who, along with everyone else, covered

517
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 3: up Joe Biden's mental decline. Well, sadly she's back on

518
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 3: TV and back doing what she does best, covering up

519
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,120
Speaker 3: Joe Biden's mental decline.

520
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 14: When we talk about the mental acuity, and again I

521
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 14: take this very very seriously. I never saw anyone who

522
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 14: wasn't there. I saw someone who was always engaged.

523
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 1: Can you believe it?

524
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 3: She's still covering for him. The gas lighting is unbelievable.

525
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 3: She saw nothing, She saw none of this.

526
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 1: If your hole's near, and dear to you that you.

527
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 15: Like to be able to.

528
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 16: Anyway, No, in with.

529
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 1: With I don't know what.

530
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 3: I'll speaking of falling over? Why do the left just

531
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 3: fall over themselves?

532
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 15: They had ice agents break into their home in the

533
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 15: middle of the night, take them, take them to the

534
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 15: holding in Miami. We didn't know where they had gone.

535
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,400
Speaker 9: You could give me some details about this. I would

536
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 9: love to bring attention to that.

537
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,120
Speaker 15: No, I'm not going to bring attention to them.

538
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 9: Do you know their names?

539
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:33,439
Speaker 16: Hi?

540
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,200
Speaker 15: They're dear friends of ours and we're not.

541
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 9: I would love to help your friends if they've been

542
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 9: wrongfully detained in any way and they're not being even

543
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 9: given human decency down in Alligator Alcatraz, I would love

544
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:46,960
Speaker 9: to help them.

545
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,480
Speaker 15: We weren't down there. Okay, this is ten years ago.

546
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 15: Oh oh, this was ten years ago. Okay, so where

547
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 15: are they now? So that has nothing to do with

548
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,399
Speaker 15: what Trump is doing? Well, no, it was less than

549
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 15: ten years whoops.

550
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 3: And that's one of my favorite segments, the crazed white

551
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 3: liberal Karens of America starting with this lunatic who just

552
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 3: wants to leave.

553
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 4: Well, doesn't daughter that eat like I'm not even today?

554
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:34,119
Speaker 1: Like, oh my god, God, delightful. And there's just no

555
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: reasoning with them, is there?

556
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 10: And you.

557
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:39,760
Speaker 1: An abuse.

558
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:41,919
Speaker 4: Men can't control their emotions and abuse.

559
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 9: Excuse me, I'm andry, I mean ray, and I'm loud.

560
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:48,119
Speaker 1: That's not emotional.

561
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:52,199
Speaker 10: That's called being persistent and passionate and all.

562
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 1: They don't yell and said, that's not that's not emotional.

563
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: That's I want to say. I'm that's the one is

564
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 1: what makes you feel logical? And yeah, I've got to

565
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 1: give it to these Karens. They're always so triggered. You

566
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 1: get triggered because it has chorally on their own. He

567
00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 1: was a racist because he was, and not me that

568
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 1: you was, wam, get out?

569
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 15: Do you hated people? It wasn't Street.

570
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 3: Joining me now is Sky newsic contributor Kosher Gata Kosher.

571
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:30,920
Speaker 1: Nice to see you, Thanks for joining me.

572
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,920
Speaker 3: Let's start with Donald Trump's takedown of Kevin Rather have

573
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 3: a look where.

574
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,960
Speaker 16: You said before, took his positions to prison.

575
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 4: But I don't like you either, Will.

576
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 1: It was quite a moment, Kosher. What's your reaction? What

577
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 1: do you make of it?

578
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 16: Oh, it certainly was quite a moment in na I

579
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 16: think you know, on so level it was sort of

580
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:04,480
Speaker 16: a microcosm or metaphor, I should say, of the US

581
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 16: Australia relationship in a way so far under these two administrations,

582
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 16: in particular where he didn't even know or remember who

583
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 16: Kevin Rudd was, didn't know he was at the table.

584
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 16: It's been nine months until this meeting took place. So

585
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 16: it's just suggesting that, you know, there's a table and

586
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 16: Australia has not so far seemed to be at it,

587
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 16: but at least finally they are. I think the second

588
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 16: thing too, is politics is so performative. Everything is performative

589
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 16: from all the actors. But what's different about Trump and

590
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,520
Speaker 16: what many people have found and daring about him, is

591
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 16: he just owns it. Like he's very happy to be performative,

592
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 16: play that role, have the cameras rolling in these meetings

593
00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 16: and you know, be a truth teller.

594
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 4: And saying I don't like you.

595
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,120
Speaker 16: I probably never will, but that's okay. We can still

596
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 16: do deals, we can still be allies, and we don't

597
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:48,600
Speaker 16: have to pretend to like each other.

598
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 3: Well here's what the opposition later, Susan Ley said about

599
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 3: the future of Kevin Rodd following that exchange. Well, Kevin

600
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 3: Rudd really was the elephant in the room, Pate, and

601
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 3: it's a bit awkward.

602
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 10: Isn't it.

603
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 7: It's taken nearly a year to get this meeting and

604
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 7: that's been a failure of the ambassador.

605
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,120
Speaker 1: I don't believe he should stay in that role.

606
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 7: And to see the Prime Minister actually laughing at his

607
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 7: own ambassador in the room when the President made a joke.

608
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 1: I think it's it's untenable. I mean, it was embarrassing.

609
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:23,960
Speaker 3: Let's be honest, kosher realistically, can Kevin run keep his role?

610
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:24,520
Speaker 1: Do you think?

611
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 16: You know many people have been saying he shouldn't have

612
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 16: been in it for the past nine months at all,

613
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 16: because he's had those public statements that he's later retracted

614
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 16: or withdrawn and that's out there forever. And is he

615
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 16: really that effective? And is somebody who on a deep

616
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,160
Speaker 16: level seems to really dislike Trump effective? But Prime Minister

617
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 16: Albaniazi has decided to stand behind him. I think it

618
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 16: obviously makes a fair point. This is the opportunity for

619
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 16: the opposition to pounce on that because it was a

620
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 16: bit awkward. That would be the most charitable word for

621
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 16: the Prime Minister to laugh along with Trump at him.

622
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 16: For me, I thought Evian Rudd's facial expression gave it

623
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 16: away that he wasn't at all enjoying that laugh or

624
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 16: being laughed at by both of them. But he sort

625
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 16: of had to go through the ring of fire because

626
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 16: of the situation that he created. But for now, at least,

627
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 16: it sounds like he's staying put in that's seat in

628
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 16: that rule.

629
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 7: Well.

630
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 3: I mean, we all thought maybe Albo might get the

631
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:18,120
Speaker 3: dressing down. Little did we know it would be Kevin

632
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 3: right on the opposite end of the table. But yeah,

633
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 3: certainly fascinating scenes. But let's talk about the meeting itself.

634
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 3: How did Anthony Albaneze do? Did he get the right result?

635
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 3: I mean, this was a long time coming. There's been

636
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,560
Speaker 3: so much anticipation building up to it. It appears the

637
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,240
Speaker 3: orcat steel is safe. That must be seen as a win.

638
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 16: Yes, And I think just the point you made just

639
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 16: before that because a good one. Maybe that's why he

640
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 16: brought Kevin Rud out the table to sort of create

641
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,200
Speaker 16: a diversion and let Kevin Rud be the magnet that

642
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 16: sucks the iro out of Trump and giving him some

643
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 16: clean space to do what he needs to do policy wise.

644
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 16: I think getting the enthusiastic reaffirmation of ocus is a

645
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 16: good thing. There's reportedly some ironing out of the framework

646
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 16: that is still going to happen, but in general Trump

647
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 16: did take a dig at at Biden, as he often does,

648
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 16: for being very slow to move, and he says he's

649
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 16: actually going to accelerate it and be on track to

650
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 16: get the sub submarines by the deadline of twenty thirty.

651
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 16: And then the other big thing was the minerals deal.

652
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 16: That is something that is really picking up a lot

653
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,440
Speaker 16: of heat in the global trade war between the US

654
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 16: and China, and Australia does have a pivotal role in

655
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 16: that as well. So I think those two things, it

656
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 16: does look like the Prime Minister seems to have walked

657
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 16: away with a stronger position and more clarity about where

658
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 16: there's a common ground and shared roles. That the common

659
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 16: ground that we can find between both countries and a

660
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 16: shared role that we can both countries can play for

661
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 16: mutual better interests, and hopefully that stays on track.

662
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 3: And just before we move on to other topics, I

663
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 3: want to ask you about this critical minerals deal that's

664
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 3: been signed by Australia and the US. It's worth thirteen

665
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:52,959
Speaker 3: billion dollars. What does this mean for US?

666
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 16: You know, the biggest value that I think Australia brings

667
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 16: in general to the alliance right now, but specifically for

668
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,120
Speaker 16: what Trump is keedan on, and that is his trade

669
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 16: war with China is geographic proximity to China, and then

670
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 16: also these critical minerals, because there is an escalating trade

671
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 16: war going on right now, and China has over the

672
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 16: past couple of decades and more really been locking up

673
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 16: rare minerals from other countries around the world, and the

674
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 16: US and President Trump really has taken note of that,

675
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:25,760
Speaker 16: and Australia provides counterbalance to that, a meaningful one. So

676
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 16: the value of it trickling right into the Australian economy

677
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 16: is a good thing. Having the rare earth minerals is

678
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 16: one thing, but being able to refine it and actually

679
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:37,280
Speaker 16: develop it is sophisticated manufacturing that this steel hopefully would

680
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 16: undergird some sort of further partnership between the US and Australia.

681
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 16: And it also really is just a counterweight and a

682
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 16: deterrent to China strategy in this category.

683
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, look absolutely well, finally got the mating and it's

684
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 3: been a fascinating twenty four hours in Washington, that's for sure.

685
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,480
Speaker 3: Let's move on because a court has ruled that Donald

686
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 3: Trump can deploy Oregon National Guard troops into the city

687
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 3: of Portland.

688
00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 1: Now, look, this has been interesting. Came to get your

689
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 1: views on how big of a win.

690
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,720
Speaker 3: Is this because there's been a lot of setbacks in

691
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,880
Speaker 3: Donald Trump's efforts to crack down on crime in parts

692
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 3: of America.

693
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,560
Speaker 1: This has gone to court. The Court of Appeals has

694
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 1: now got no go for it. But does it set

695
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 1: a standard.

696
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:21,000
Speaker 16: It certainly sets a good winning precedent for the Trump administration.

697
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:23,440
Speaker 16: The other side very well may appeal it up to

698
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 16: the Supreme Court, and they'll obviously have the final say,

699
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:29,759
Speaker 16: but they are largely expected to uphold this ruling. And

700
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 16: in other cases where other circuits and appeals courts have

701
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 16: ruled in the reverse and the opposite effect, those are

702
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:37,839
Speaker 16: making their way up to the Supreme Court as well.

703
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 16: And there's the expectation is that the Supreme Court will

704
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:44,479
Speaker 16: again rule in Trump the Trump Administration's favor. Because again,

705
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 16: while there is sovereignty and we like that in the

706
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,919
Speaker 16: US and states have their own sovereign rights, the whole

707
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,440
Speaker 16: thing that the Trump administration is anchoring this on is

708
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 16: they're going there to provide back up. The National Guard

709
00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 16: is going to provide backup to ICE. So ICE is

710
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 16: allowed to go and find these the illegals and conduct

711
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:07,560
Speaker 16: their mass deportation operations if they're being attacked, which they

712
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 16: are day in and day out. The National Guard and

713
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 16: whoever else the federal government wants to deploy to protect

714
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 16: ICE agents, they are allowed to do. So that's what

715
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,880
Speaker 16: this ruling says. It's a very important precedent and hopefully

716
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,560
Speaker 16: we see that ripple effect come out in the other circuits.

717
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, look absolutely, Now Senate Democrats have again blocked the

718
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 3: Republicans planned to reopen the government for an eleventh time. Look, Kosher,

719
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 3: this is just getting ridiculous. Now the shutdown's nearing its

720
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,759
Speaker 3: fourth week. There just appears to be no end in sight.

721
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:38,879
Speaker 1: What is it going to take?

722
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:44,640
Speaker 16: Do you think, indeed this is an impasse? It's just

723
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 16: a few days shy of the longest shutdown in history,

724
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,880
Speaker 16: which was in Trump's first term thirty five days. I

725
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,719
Speaker 16: think we're injurin close to that benchmark. And this time

726
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,240
Speaker 16: though it is different compared to last time, where ultimately

727
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:58,279
Speaker 16: it was Trump that caved. Is that this time the

728
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,239
Speaker 16: one big beautiful bill that was passed before we got

729
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,920
Speaker 16: to the shutdown point already has funded Trump's agenda by

730
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 16: and large, all the mass deportation efforts that we just discussed,

731
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:13,040
Speaker 16: other things relating to the wall, cutting funding for illegals

732
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 16: that are taking up public welfare programs, things like that

733
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,359
Speaker 16: that are very popular. He's got all of that squared away,

734
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 16: which puts him in a position to really.

735
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:21,719
Speaker 4: Play hardball on this.

736
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 16: Yes, the right side of the aisle, and the Republicans

737
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 16: will pay a little bit of a price politically when

738
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,680
Speaker 16: certain things start to not function properly as the shutdown

739
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 16: drags on, But most of those things that the American

740
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:36,960
Speaker 16: people support, he's got locked away. This politically puts the

741
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,719
Speaker 16: other side, the Democrats, in a very tough light. And

742
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 16: I don't think it's going to be the Trump administration

743
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 16: that's going to cave this time. It's going to be

744
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 16: the Democrats. The sticking point is health care for illegals.

745
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 16: That is a red line that Team Trump has drawn,

746
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 16: and it's going to take them to capitulate on that.

747
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:53,960
Speaker 16: The Democrats capitulating on that is what it'll take to

748
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:55,880
Speaker 16: finally break this impasse.

749
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,600
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, the DEM's demands have just been absolutely

750
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 3: ridiculous from the beginning. But the interesting thing is is

751
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:04,280
Speaker 3: that this shutdown has not even harmed President Trump's public support.

752
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 3: In fact, his approval rating has increased.

753
00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 17: Have a look at this about Donald Trump shutdowns net

754
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:13,479
Speaker 17: approval rating. We're talking twenty days into it. In twenty

755
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:17,240
Speaker 17: eighteen slash twenty nineteen, Donald Trump's not approprating was already falling.

756
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,080
Speaker 17: The shutdown was eating in. It was popular support. It

757
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 17: was down three points already at this particular point and

758
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,239
Speaker 17: would fall considerably more. It was very much on the decline.

759
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:28,320
Speaker 17: You come over to this side of the screen, this

760
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 17: shutdown hasn't eaten and the Donald Trump support at all

761
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:34,320
Speaker 17: isn't That approval rating is actually up a point and

762
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,719
Speaker 17: in terms of in terms of his popular support.

763
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 1: Kosher it seems as though it's backfired for the Democrats.

764
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 16: I think the foundational point is is that Trump actually

765
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,439
Speaker 16: is not as hated as he was then. He still

766
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:51,239
Speaker 16: is hated by many many people, but.

767
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 1: A little bit less so.

768
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 16: He is actually more popular than he was the first

769
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 16: time around for many reasons. Second is, on this issue, specifically,

770
00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 16: the lynchpin that we talked about where coming down to

771
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:03,560
Speaker 16: illegals and should they be beneficiaries of free health care not.

772
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:07,400
Speaker 16: That's sort of the sticking point. The country and the

773
00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 16: electorate has completely shifted in the last ten years on

774
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:13,920
Speaker 16: this issue. They are in support of mass deportations, certainly

775
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 16: the violent criminal illegals, but even the rest of them,

776
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:19,800
Speaker 16: and not continuing to give welfare handouts and hard earned

777
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 16: taxpayer American tax payer money to illegals, even if they're

778
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 16: quote unquote good people. You come in the country and

779
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:27,280
Speaker 16: stay illegally, you should not be getting access to welfare.

780
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:29,520
Speaker 16: So that issue, the Trump team has done a really

781
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,719
Speaker 16: good job, I think of reframing it and people sort

782
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 16: of get that the branding on the other side is

783
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,960
Speaker 16: a Schumer shutdown, and just the way they've been behaving

784
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:38,480
Speaker 16: in the fact that they are at an all time

785
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,440
Speaker 16: low electorally, politically, in the court of public opinion and

786
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,759
Speaker 16: everything else, is helping sort of boostop Trump in this

787
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 16: fight as it continues.

788
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, look, no doubt about it now. I thought that's

789
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:49,280
Speaker 1: what was interesting.

790
00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 3: The New York Post editorial board has called for Republican

791
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,919
Speaker 3: New York City mayoral candidate Curtis see Why to quit

792
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 3: to stop Zoran ma'am Dani and It comes as a

793
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 3: new poll has found that the Democratic nominee Ma'am Danni

794
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,960
Speaker 3: maintains a comfortable lead in the race, Kosha, as he

795
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 3: has for some time. Do you see see why actually

796
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 3: pulling the pin realistically now, this is.

797
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,240
Speaker 16: Really really tough one. And I don't envy his position

798
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 16: because what they're asking the New York Post on others

799
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,320
Speaker 16: is for Curtisiola to be a tragic hero in this

800
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 16: really because he's pulling at around fifteen to twenty percent.

801
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:29,439
Speaker 16: That's actually pretty strong for a Republican candidate these days

802
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,800
Speaker 16: in New York, and that is cannibalizing the vote between

803
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,479
Speaker 16: the other two, and with Cuomo is fifteen to twenty

804
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:39,279
Speaker 16: points that same difference basically behind mam Dani. So theoretically,

805
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:43,719
Speaker 16: if he pulls out, it puts Cuomo in, giving him

806
00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 16: a fighting chance to possibly win. However, not everybody who

807
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 16: right now is supporting Silva is going to flow over

808
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 16: to Cuomo.

809
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 1: He is not exactly the.

810
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,160
Speaker 16: Most favor sympathetic figure in general. A lot of people

811
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,839
Speaker 16: are still very angry with how he mishandled COVID, among

812
00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 16: other things. He himself, Cuomo is not as strong as

813
00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:02,600
Speaker 16: he was in the prime of his career, so it

814
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,480
Speaker 16: really is a lesser of the two evils issue. I

815
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:06,880
Speaker 16: don't know if he's going to do it or not.

816
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 16: The pressure is on for him, but even if he

817
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:12,160
Speaker 16: does it, it'll certainly tighten the race. But even with that,

818
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,399
Speaker 16: it just really looks like this is mum Daney's unfortunately

819
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:15,759
Speaker 16: to win.

820
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:17,080
Speaker 1: Unfortunately.

821
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:21,839
Speaker 3: Gosh, you know, I just don't even know what to say,

822
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 3: to be honest, when it comes to that bloke.

823
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 1: It's extraordinary that he is ahead in the polls.

824
00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:28,720
Speaker 3: Before we let you go, let's talk about Bernie Sanders.

825
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 3: He's gone on the view saying that the Democratic Party

826
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:33,840
Speaker 3: needs to make a fundamental decision about what they stand for.

827
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 1: Have a listen.

828
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,840
Speaker 18: I think that Trump won a lot of working class people,

829
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:44,320
Speaker 18: not because they wanted tax breaks for billionaires, not because

830
00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:47,360
Speaker 18: they wanted to throw fifteen million people off the healthcare

831
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:51,680
Speaker 18: they have or double health insurance premiums. That is not

832
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 18: why working class people voted for Trump. I think they

833
00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:56,640
Speaker 18: voted for Trump because they look at the Democrats and

834
00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:58,880
Speaker 18: they said, what do you stand for? What side do

835
00:40:58,920 --> 00:40:59,239
Speaker 18: you want?

836
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:01,240
Speaker 1: Is he right kosher?

837
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:06,280
Speaker 16: You know, he is trying to return to his roots

838
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 16: there he was the og from the Democrat Party when yes,

839
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,520
Speaker 16: they were the party of the working class. Like now,

840
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 16: it seems like a lifetime ago, and he was the

841
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,600
Speaker 16: best representative of that. But he missed his moment. His

842
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 16: moment was in twenty sixteen where he absolutely was organically

843
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:23,680
Speaker 16: giving Hillary Clinton a run for her money. He beat

844
00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:25,800
Speaker 16: her in the Michigan primaries in terms of the organic

845
00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 16: support and other parts of the rust belt, but then

846
00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:31,480
Speaker 16: because of the weird super delegate system that the democratcrats have,

847
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:33,719
Speaker 16: she was still able to lock up the nomination, and

848
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:37,320
Speaker 16: when the moment really mattered, he rolled over folded like

849
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 16: a cheap tent. And because of that, he no longer

850
00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:42,239
Speaker 16: has credibility on this issue, even though he once did so.

851
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 16: He's right in the diagnosis of the issue, but he

852
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,560
Speaker 16: has no credibility. He's not the spokesperson for it, and

853
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:49,720
Speaker 16: I don't know who is in the Democrat Party anymore.

854
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:52,799
Speaker 16: They've left that era behind that he's talking of. They

855
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 16: absolutely are viewed as the party of billionaires. One billionaire

856
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,120
Speaker 16: after another very much supports the Democrats. You've sort of

857
00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:01,840
Speaker 16: got elon mass can me be Zuckerberg and Bezos in

858
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:06,040
Speaker 16: recent times begrudgingly pulling away. But by and large that

859
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,400
Speaker 16: that ship that he's talked about has sealed, they can

860
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:10,680
Speaker 16: figure out how to come back to that. I think

861
00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:12,719
Speaker 16: it'll be better for the country to actually have both

862
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:15,520
Speaker 16: parties caring about the working class and maybe differing a

863
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 16: little bit on the margins of the policy and the

864
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:19,800
Speaker 16: solutions for serving them. But that is not where the

865
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:20,759
Speaker 16: Democrats are right now.

866
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 3: No, very clearly not Koshergarda. Good to see thanks very

867
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:24,840
Speaker 3: much for joining me.

868
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 4: Thank you.

869
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,440
Speaker 1: Still to come. The tolerant left strikes again.

870
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:34,760
Speaker 3: Comedian Alex Stein is assaulted at a No King's protest

871
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 3: in the US.

872
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,239
Speaker 1: He'll tell us what happened. That's next.

873
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:49,360
Speaker 3: Joining me now is comedian and host of Primetime with

874
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 3: Alex Stein on Blaze TV.

875
00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:53,080
Speaker 1: Alex Stein himself. Good to see you.

876
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 3: Thanks very much for joining me. We spoke earlier in

877
00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:57,280
Speaker 3: the show about the No Kings protests.

878
00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 1: Now you went to the.

879
00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 3: One in Dallas where you were actually assaulted by the protesters.

880
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 1: Have a look at this.

881
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:10,200
Speaker 4: Assaulted oh by.

882
00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:16,760
Speaker 15: Charley Yet.

883
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 1: Alex, take us through what happened.

884
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:24,560
Speaker 10: Well, you know, this is a unique protest. This is

885
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:27,360
Speaker 10: the No Kings protest, and this is the second iteration

886
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:30,919
Speaker 10: of this protest. And I even though the mainstream media

887
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:33,800
Speaker 10: did get caught sharing fake images of this event, you know,

888
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:36,160
Speaker 10: trying to make it seem like there was millions and

889
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:38,800
Speaker 10: millions of people there, there were still lots of people.

890
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,840
Speaker 10: And I was in Dallas and basically I was just

891
00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:44,200
Speaker 10: trying to fit in. And what happened was is there

892
00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:45,960
Speaker 10: was another kid that was there that was wearing a

893
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,440
Speaker 10: Maga hat, and once they started to kind of attack him,

894
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,680
Speaker 10: I stepped in and that made me a target. And

895
00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:54,000
Speaker 10: you know, as you saw in the video, once they

896
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:56,480
Speaker 10: realized who I was and that I was right leaning,

897
00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 10: I became an enemy and I felt like a piece

898
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,680
Speaker 10: of meat with a bunch of abid dogs all trying

899
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:02,560
Speaker 10: to get a bite.

900
00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:03,840
Speaker 4: I mean it really did feel like that.

901
00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:07,160
Speaker 3: I mean, they're just all so pathetic, seriously, And I

902
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:09,360
Speaker 3: want to show our viewer was another clip of you

903
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:10,120
Speaker 3: at the protest.

904
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:10,640
Speaker 16: Have a look.

905
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:27,960
Speaker 3: So they were chanting shame Alex, and I've got to

906
00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:29,960
Speaker 3: say it reminded me of this from Game of Thrones.

907
00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:43,800
Speaker 1: Shame shame, shame sheme sheme, Yeah, shame on you, Alex.

908
00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:45,800
Speaker 1: You had your own Game of Thrones moment.

909
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:48,400
Speaker 3: But you know, what does it say about the tolerant

910
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:49,840
Speaker 3: left that we hear all about.

911
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:53,759
Speaker 10: Well, you know, it's funny that you actually use the

912
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:57,640
Speaker 10: Game of Thrones reference, because not only were there tons

913
00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:01,319
Speaker 10: of Game of Thrones people yelling shame tale, I saw

914
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:04,359
Speaker 10: ten different people and the Handmaid's tales. So that's really

915
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:05,879
Speaker 10: what's going on is we have a lot of people

916
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:09,279
Speaker 10: that are just live action role playing LARPing activists. They

917
00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:11,400
Speaker 10: really don't even care about the cause that they're so

918
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 10: mad and up.

919
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:13,240
Speaker 1: In arms about.

920
00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,960
Speaker 10: So when you look at these people, I really kind

921
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,560
Speaker 10: of look at a lost bunch looking for a path,

922
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:22,400
Speaker 10: looking for a direction, And once again they realized that

923
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:24,800
Speaker 10: I wasn't there on their side, so I became the target.

924
00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:26,319
Speaker 10: Even though they didn't talk to me, they didn't want

925
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:28,600
Speaker 10: to have a conversation. They immediately want to start throwing

926
00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:31,439
Speaker 10: water and attacking. So I feel bad that the left

927
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:33,560
Speaker 10: is so impulsive and out of touch with the reality.

928
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 10: And I think that's why this whole protest happened. No kings,

929
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:38,800
Speaker 10: We're in America. We don't have kings. Why are we

930
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:42,320
Speaker 10: protesting against kings? It just shows you, even the protests,

931
00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:45,479
Speaker 10: the biggest protest that we had this year literally makes

932
00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:48,840
Speaker 10: no sense out of context. No Kings, biggest protests in America.

933
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:49,600
Speaker 4: We don't have kings.

934
00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:51,920
Speaker 10: Why are they even wasting their time protesting?

935
00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:52,640
Speaker 17: No?

936
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,560
Speaker 3: And when you ask them why, they have no idea themselves.

937
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,200
Speaker 3: They've got nothing to say. Now, look at video of

938
00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:00,279
Speaker 3: a woman mocking the death of Charlie Kirk at one

939
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:02,320
Speaker 3: of the protests has gone viral over the weekend.

940
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:06,920
Speaker 4: Have a look. Hey, you never heard?

941
00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:11,160
Speaker 1: This is just disgusting, Alex.

942
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:13,800
Speaker 3: She's been identified as a school teacher in Chicago.

943
00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:15,080
Speaker 1: Should she lose her job?

944
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:19,200
Speaker 10: You know, this is a tricky situation because I'm out

945
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:21,839
Speaker 10: right now, I'm outside of normal Illinois. I just got

946
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:25,000
Speaker 10: to speak at Illinois State University where there's a viral

947
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:28,439
Speaker 10: story this this Friday, and the actual teacher's assistant came

948
00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:30,839
Speaker 10: over to the booth, the turning porn booth and knocked

949
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:33,560
Speaker 10: over the table, and that teacher ended up getting arrested

950
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:36,239
Speaker 10: and he lost his job. Now, in a way, I'm

951
00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 10: happy that he lost his job, but I never like

952
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:41,120
Speaker 10: it when somebody loses their job. So, but this woman,

953
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:43,000
Speaker 10: I don't really want her to lose her job, But

954
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:45,120
Speaker 10: should she lose her job. Yes, I think she should

955
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:47,800
Speaker 10: lose her job for making that sort of threat. Considering

956
00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,839
Speaker 10: that she is teaching young children. So you know, if

957
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:53,479
Speaker 10: she was, like, you know, maybe a bus driver or something,

958
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 10: you know, maybe she could keep her job with the

959
00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:57,279
Speaker 10: fact that she's a teacher. Personally, I don't like when

960
00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,120
Speaker 10: anybody loses their job, but she really shouldn't.

961
00:46:59,120 --> 00:46:59,799
Speaker 4: Probably keep her.

962
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:03,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, look, that's a fair point that you make. Now,

963
00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:06,200
Speaker 3: the former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was among Democrats

964
00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:07,080
Speaker 3: and Trump critics.

965
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:09,879
Speaker 1: They're having a real winge Alex.

966
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 3: At a satirical AI video that the President posted showing

967
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:16,200
Speaker 3: him dropping brown sludge on No King's protesters.

968
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:16,680
Speaker 1: Have a look.

969
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:40,399
Speaker 3: Oh, I thought it was brilliant, alex I loved it. Well,

970
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:42,799
Speaker 3: where are the where is a sense of humor from

971
00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:43,920
Speaker 3: the left? They've got nothing.

972
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:46,640
Speaker 10: No, you're exactly right.

973
00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:48,600
Speaker 1: And obviously this is a joke.

974
00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:50,920
Speaker 10: Anybody that's taking it serious, Like there are people that

975
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:53,319
Speaker 10: are like, oh, Donald Trump really wants to bomb us.

976
00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:54,920
Speaker 10: I mean, this is how out of touch with the

977
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:57,000
Speaker 10: reality these people. I know, I keep saying that, but

978
00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:59,160
Speaker 10: that's kind of like where we're at is one people

979
00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:02,080
Speaker 10: believes in a real that and other people don't believe

980
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 10: is real. So when you see a video like this,

981
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:06,919
Speaker 10: I can only laugh because Donald Trump has the best

982
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:10,120
Speaker 10: sense of humor of any elected politician in my lifetime,

983
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:12,359
Speaker 10: or probably anybody's lifetime for that matter.

984
00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:14,439
Speaker 1: So when I see videos like this, I laugh.

985
00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:17,920
Speaker 10: But at the same exact time though, Donald Trump and AI,

986
00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:20,800
Speaker 10: you know, he's probably going crazy. I can't imagine the

987
00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:22,719
Speaker 10: creative stuff that Donald Trump is going to come up

988
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:24,279
Speaker 10: with AI, So I would not want to be one

989
00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:27,320
Speaker 10: of Donald Trump's enemies, with him having the keys to

990
00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:29,560
Speaker 10: the digital castle and he created anything else.

991
00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 3: They's they's out there annihilating his keyboard. He's having way

992
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:35,839
Speaker 3: too much fun with this, and we're enjoying it as well. Now,

993
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:39,560
Speaker 3: look at Illinois State University teaching assistant's been fired after

994
00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:42,720
Speaker 3: he was captured on video flipping a turning Point USA

995
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:47,240
Speaker 3: table which had actually been promoting an upcoming appearance by yourself.

996
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:47,880
Speaker 1: Have a look at this.

997
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:50,520
Speaker 2: Jesus did it so you know I gotta do it.

998
00:48:58,719 --> 00:48:59,879
Speaker 4: Thanks, guys, have a great thing.

999
00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 1: How did this get covered?

1000
00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:09,040
Speaker 4: So sad? Oh?

1001
00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:12,440
Speaker 1: Well, Alex, what can I say? It looks like you

1002
00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:13,759
Speaker 1: will get the last laugh.

1003
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:18,680
Speaker 10: Yes, sadly, Derek Lopez is still in jail, and you know,

1004
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:20,600
Speaker 10: I never like it when somebody's in jail, but I

1005
00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:22,080
Speaker 10: wish he could have been out of jail because I

1006
00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:23,560
Speaker 10: would have loved for him to come to the event.

1007
00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:26,480
Speaker 10: There's only three protesters at it. We had hundreds of

1008
00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:29,680
Speaker 10: Turning Point USA kids there. So in the end, everything

1009
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,640
Speaker 10: that he did only brought more positive attention to Turning Points.

1010
00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:35,080
Speaker 10: So I honestly feel bad for the guy. And on

1011
00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:36,920
Speaker 10: top of that, he lost his job, so he's not

1012
00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:39,640
Speaker 10: doing too well today. So I think that's kind of

1013
00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:41,560
Speaker 10: a we can all learn a lesson. Sometimes when you're

1014
00:49:41,560 --> 00:49:45,279
Speaker 10: impulsive and you react without thinking, there's serious consequences, and

1015
00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:48,840
Speaker 10: sadly he had to face those consequences and the event was,

1016
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:51,640
Speaker 10: you know, it was a total success. So at the

1017
00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:53,160
Speaker 10: end of the day, you got to pick your battles,

1018
00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:54,480
Speaker 10: pick the ones you can win.

1019
00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:58,440
Speaker 3: Absolutely, Alex side not to say it was always good

1020
00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 3: to catch up. Thanks very much for your me on

1021
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:01,719
Speaker 3: the show. Appreciate it.

1022
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:04,239
Speaker 10: Always a pleasure. Thank you for having me.

1023
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:06,680
Speaker 1: And that's it for me. Up next to News Night,
